DIFFERENTIAL
Inspect
• Pinion gear shaft for unusual wear.
• Pinion gear and side gear teeth for wear, cracks,
scoring, and spalling.
• Thrust washers for wear.
• The fit of the side gears in the differential case.
• The fit of the side gears on the axle shafts.
• Differential case for cracks and scoring.
• All parts for wear and replace if necessary.
PINION AND RING GEAR
Ring and pinion gears are matched sets and both are
replaced any time a replacement of either is necessary.
SHIMS
l ?
Inspect
• Pinion and ring gear teeth for cracking, chipping,
scoring, or excessive wear.
• Pinion gear splines for wear.
• Pinion flange splines for wear.
• The fit of the pinion gear splines on the pinion
flange.
• The sealing surface of the pinion flange for nicks,
burrs, or rough tool marks that could cause dam
age to the seal’s inside diameter and result in an
oil leak.
• All worn or broken parts and replace if necessary.
Important
A new pinion flange must also be replaced when
ring gear and pinion gear are replaced to maintain
proper system balance.
BEARINGS
Inspect
Bearings for smooth rotation after oiling them.
Bearing rollers for wear.
Bearing cups for wear, cracks, brinelling, and scor
ing.
Important
When replacing worn or cracked bearings and
cups, make sure to to replace them in sets.
Ring gear and pinion gear for wear and replace
them as a set if worn.
Important
• Low m ile a g e b e a rin g s m ay have very sm all

should be replaced with an equal size service
shim.
